    No argument that he’s not a great choice. But we’re not being given a way to make another choice, unless it’s to vote for Trump. And if you want to go down that rabbit hole of health and mental issues…sure, it’s a whataboutism. What about it?

      The hope is that he steps down as the nominee for the good of the country and thus improves our chances of beating Trump.

        That “having a chance to beat Trump” is even something said these days is insane.

        Imagine a parallel world where there are two or more candidates for leadership who argue over the ideas to better the country and world, and all of them have their valid points. Where the difficulty is in figuring out who is a better choice, but even the worst winning would be okay.

        I mean ever now and then I think we could have had that.

        “How did it come to this?” Yeah, Theoden, I get it.
